You cannot actively lift your big toe because the flexor hallucis longus muscle responsible for pulling it up is not strong enough compared to other toe flexor muscles. The tendon passing under the foot bone structure restricts its movement.

Yes, the middle toe is medial to the big toe. In anatomical terms, "medial" refers to a position closer to the midline of the body, while "lateral" refers to a position further away from the midline.
